Green sofa and dress

I am a bit behind... know what I mean?
The Rainbow Scrap Challenge Folk have moved on to June's color and here I am finishing Greens.

Making decisions on the sofa, dress and TV were surprisingly hard this month.
I have a lot of stress at the moment, and that probably influences creativity. Still...

I paper pieced the sofa, I had to print out the pattern, cut it apart into sections and copy the sections in order to give myself seam allowances. Won't you come in and have a seat? Choose any color sofa you'd like... click on any picture to see details.This time I'm serving limeade cool and tart in a tall glass, please use a coaster... what do you think of my dress???

I love the fabric on my simple summer frock!Who doesn't love a polka dot? Why do they call dots polka dots? Do they dance across the surface? The little striped belt gives me a bit of a waist...but a person might need a stern foundation garment under such a tailored dress. Plus hose and heels, and a set of pearls. Want to see the others in my closet?

I absolutely must do the Aqua sofa and dress for June! RSCNow the TV is under construction, so there will be no I love Lucy this week... looks like the travel show will be on.

I think your PP dresses and sofas are just adorable; some days it's more difficultthan others even with the same patterns--I think they're polka dots as my Polish relatives always danced around the Hall at weddings in a big circle--two by two...?quien sabe? we are a bit stressed here too...I tore my big PS quilt in half ;000--last night--sick of hauling it through the machine--so now I have two smaller lap quilts -- one for each little grandgirl...my Dh was aghast!! Ye olde seam ripper did its stuff...hugs, Julierose ya gotta do whatcha gotta do....

definition of self

I am the sum of my history along with all the possibilities of tomorrow, and define myself daily by decisions I make. Every day is an opportunity to create, seek joy and display strength. (c-2013) LA Paylor

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Chardonnay in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO-HOO, what a ride!!"

ON POODLES

When asked “Why a Poodle?” the late Anne Rogers Clark (the first woman to win Best inShow at Westminster) often replied: “They are Labradors with college educations. Aftera day of retrieving, your Lab wants to curl up in front of the fireplace and take a welldeserved nap. A Poodle wants to be fourth at the bridge table and tell naughty stories!”
